Anyone at University? How do you finance your Airsoft?

I'd recommend putting some money away as soon as you get it, that way you don't spend it accidently etc.

I currently save at least £30 every 2 weeks on buying 'cheap' food. To me, it tastes better and pays for a months worth of skirmishes, so its a win win for me.

Gun wise, you want something that's cheap.. reliable.. common replacement/upgrade parts and inexpensive to repair (if it does go wrong, fingers crossed it doesn't). From personal experience, G&G Combat Machine or CM16 is perfect for this.

Buy BBs in 'bulk' meaning you have to pay more upfront, but in the long wrong saving money, not much, but its still saving a couple quid (cost of a grenade or two etc.). Also, with the BBs, limit yourself on taking 4000 to a skirmish or something similar, that way you are not spunking them away like I used to. That used to cost me an absolute fortune :( Im a student whilst working part time, thankfully able to fund this expensive, but frigging awesome hobby.

Hope a couple of these ideas helped mate, all the best to you.

 
Another thing with the buying BBs in 'bulk', if you have a friend who plays airsoft with you, go halves with each other. That way the cost upfront is less.
